FYI. I'll be trying to update to that version soon - we'll need see if
it helps solving some of the issues we have with OWA, and if it requires
alterations to the code.

Has

OWA
version
1.3.0
has
been
released. You can grab the code as a tarball or from SVN.

The
full
v1.3.0
release
notes
are
here.



Major
New
Features

True
Metrics
&
Dimensions – this release introduces a new abstraction layer for all of OWA’s 
metric and dimensions that allows developers and analysts to work with them 
without having detailed understanding of OWA’s underlying database schema. All 
metrics and dimensions now have their own names – allowing you to easily mix 
and match them in result sets and API calls.

Result
sets –
metrics
and
dimensions are now accessed through a new API method called getResultSet. This 
method greatly simplifies access to metric and dimension combinations greatly 
simplifies how you work with data in the presentation layers.

Data
Export
API –
OWA now
has a
REST
based
API
that
you can
use to
export
data in
JSON,
XML,
serialized PHP, and even basic HTML.

Redesigned Reporting Interface – OWA’s reporting interface got a whole new look 
and code face lift bringing with it HTML5 graphing/charting as well as 
paginated data grids.

Action
Tracking – you can now track an unlimited number of custom site “action” events 
using the new Action Tracking functionality. Track form submissions, video 
plays, downloads, or any other action that users can take on your site. You can 
even group action events and associate labels and values.

MediaWiki Action Tracking – OWA will now automatically track and report on the 
following MediaWiki actions: Article Creation/Edits/Deletions, User 
Registrations, User Logins, and File Uploads. No need to do custom page 
tagging, OWA will instrument your Mediawiki for you.

Wordpress Action Tracking – OWA will now automatically track and report on the 
following Wordpress actions: Post Creation/Edits/Deletions, User Registrations, 
User Logins, New Comment, New Blog Created (WP v3.0), User Profile Edit, 
Password Reset, and Attachment Creations, Edits, Deletions.

The
release
also
contains lots of new reporting metrics and dimensions, five new reports, and 
tons of developer features. See the release notes for more details.



Upgrading from 1.2.4 or Earlier

1.3.0
is the
first
release
that
requires PHP 5.2.x. It also contains significant database schema changes that 
may take a long time depending on the size of your database. These schema 
updates must be applied from the command line to avoid browser timeouts.

Please
see
1.3.0
release
notes
for
instructions on how to install or upgrade this release.

Also, I
would
like to
thank
everyone that was involved in this release. Whether you helped out by testing 
the code, troubleshooting an install, filing bug tickets, or contributing code, 
your efforts helped make the release happen. Thanks again and please keep 
contributing your ideas and time to the project.

To see
what’s
up
next,
take a
look at
OWA’s
development roadmap.
